Nacho Libre

Ignacio, a monk living in a Mexican orphanage, dreams of becoming a Lucha Libre wrestler to earn money and provide better food for the orphans. Despite the monastery's rules against wrestling, he adopts the masked persona "Nacho" and teams up with another orphan, Esqueleto. Together, they navigate the unpredictable world of professional wrestling, facing rivalries and comical mishaps in their quest to win the championship.
